Building an OpenVZ-enabled kernel

09-21-2010, 12:39 PM

Hello,

I would like to recompile a debian kernel with OpenVZ enabled.
However, the linux-source-2.6.32 package does not seem to come with
OpenVZ patches applied.
I have tried applying the official OpenVZ patches, but it fails,
probably because the kernel is already debian-patched and not vanilla.

As the kernel-patch-openvz package doesn't exist anymore, how can I do
to compile a kernel like you do when you generate the linux-
image-2.6.32-*-openvz-686 ?

Thanks!

Thanks, definitely what I was looking for. Sorry to have missed that
one!
